One of sich silages was very near to our garden and when it started to ferment after a while it smelled like hell. The smell was so disgusting that I (as a child) could not imagine that any living being could eat such stuff :)<BR/><BR/>There was not grass in it, but leaves and stems of corn / maize. It was fed to the cows in winter when they were in their stables. Whether the milk of these cows was used to make milk I can't remember. Perhaps the milk was sold for it, but the neighboring farmer did not make cheese from it himself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
